πŸ†πŸŽ‰ What an amazing Youth Day celebration we had at the University of Johannesburg DFC yesterday! πŸŽ‰πŸ†

In this event, we welcomed 64 young players, including players from the Vaal, for a day filled with fun, friendship, and sport.

The players enjoyed an action-packed programme that included squash, exciting energisers, soccer matches, and a movie session. The enthusiasm and energy on display throughout the day were truly inspiring, and it was wonderful to see the young players building friendships, developing skills, and creating lasting memories together.

A special thank you to Coach Thulani Erasmus, Coach Junior, Coach Lerato Maake, Coach Cassandra, Coach Rowney, and Coach Nokuthula for their dedication and support in making the day a success.

Most importantly, we would like to thank the entire Egoli team for their hard work, commitment, and teamwork behind the scenes. Your efforts made it possible for our young players to enjoy such a memorable and successful Youth Day celebration.

πŸ‘ Well done to everyone who contributed to making this event a fantastic success!

🍿✨ Today we received a delivery of our brand-new popcorn machine! ✨🍿

We are excited to add this special treat to our upcoming Youth Day celebration at University of Johannesburg. The popcorn machine will help create a fun and memorable movie experience for the children as they come together to celebrate this important day.

At Egolisquash Youth Empowerment, we believe that creating joyful moments is just as important as developing young people on and off the court. We can’t wait to see the smiles on their faces as they enjoy fresh popcorn, movies, and a day filled with fun activities.

πŸ™ŒThis Youth Month, we are reminded of exactly WHY we do what we do. πŸ’š

Every smile on the faces of our young people is a story β€” of resilience, of potential unlocked, of futures being shaped. Those smiles don't just warm our hearts, they push us to dream bigger, work harder, and reach further.

πŸ™ŒTo every young person who has walked through our doors, stepped onto the court, and dared to believe in themselves β€” YOU are our greatest achievement. You inspire us every single day.

Happy Youth Month to all the incredible young people in our community.

EgEgolisquash Youth Empowerments proud to stand with you.

β„οΈπŸŽ‰ Cold weather? What cold weather?!

The chilly Joburg winter did NOT stop us at our weekly Schools Sports Mass Participation programme at the University of Johannesburg Doornfontein and Gazankulu in Soweto! πŸ†

And honestly, nothing beats a good game of squash to warm you up! πŸ”₯🎾

This week we had an incredible 191 learners from different schools join our Wednesday and Thursday sessions β€” what an amazing turnout! πŸ‘

But that's not all! We also had 8 junior players and 6 graduates stepping up to compete in the 2026 Assore Closed Tournament, which kicked off on the 5th of May and runs through to the 9th of May. We can't wait to see them shine! 🌟

A massive thank you to Parkview Squash Centre for making all of this possible. Your support means the world to us! πŸ™β€οΈ
